In view of the above, X and X, may be represented as hydrogen, chlorine or lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, phenoxy, nitro, cyano, 'carboxylic acid ester, lower alkylsulfone, benzylsulfone, lower alkanoylamino or trifluoromethyl, and X may be represented as hydrogen, chlorine, unsubstituted carboxamide, carboxamide' substituted by lower alkyl, unsubstituted carboxyphenylamide, carboxyphenylamide substituted by chlorine or trifluoromethyl, unsubstituted sulfonamide, sulfonic acidlower alkylamide, unsubstituted sulfonic acid phenylamide, sulfonic acid, chlorophenylamide or sulfonic acid ester.

The azo dyestufi' carboxylic acids thus obtained are treated with agents which are capable of converting carboxylic acids into their acid halides, for example, their acid chlorides or bromides, such substances being, in particular, phosphorus halides, for example, phosphorus pentabromide, phosphorus pentachloride or phosphorus trichloride, phosphorus oxyhalides and preferably thionyl chloride.

The treatment with the said acid halogenating agents is advantageously carried out in an inert organic solvent, for example, dimethylformamide, a chlorobenzene, for example, monochlorobenzene or dichlorobenzene, toluene, xylene or nitrobenzene. if desired, dimethylforamide may be used in conjunction with the last five solvents specified. When preparing the carboxylic acid halides, it is generally advantageous first to dry the azo compounds which are prepared in an aqueous medium, or to free them from water by azeotropic distillation in an organic solvent. Ifdesired, azeotropic drying may be carried out immediately prior to the treatment with the acid halogenating agents. I

The azo dyestuff carboxylic acid chlorides so obtained are condensed with amines of formula (8) or with aminoacridones. Examples of such amines are aminobenzthiazolones, for example, S-aminobenzthiazolone, but especially aminobenzoxazolones, for example, 5- aminobenzoxazolone, 6-aminobenzoxazoione, 5-amino-7- chlorobenzoxazolone, 5-amino-7-bromobenzoxazolone, 5- amino-7-methylbenzoxazolone, 5-amino-7-methoxybenzoxazolone, -amino-S-chlorobenzoxazolone and 6-amino-5- methylbenzoxazolone.

These heterocyclic amines may beobtained by known processes, for example, by condensation of a l-amino-Z- hydroxynitrobenzene with phosgene in an aqueous medium and reduction of the nitrobenzoxazolone so obtained, or, in the case of a 6-aminobenzoxazolone, by phosgenation of a amino-Z-phenol, nitration of the benzoxazolone so obtained and reduction of the resulting fi-nitrobenzoxazolone.

The following are given as examples of aminoacridones: 2- aminoacridone, 4-amino2-methylacridone, 3-amino-6- chloroacridone, l-amino-4-methylacridone, 2-amino-7- methoxyacridone or 2-amino-7-ethoxyacridone.

Condensation of the carboxylic acid halides of the kind defined above with the amines is advantageously carried out in an anhydrous medium. Under these conditions it generally proceeds surprisingly easily, even at temperatures within the boiling range of the common organic solvents, for example, toluene, monochlorobenzene, dichlorobenzene, trichlorobenzene, nitrobenzene and the like. To accelerate the reaction, it is generally advantageous to use an agent capable of binding acid, for example, anhydrous sodium acetate or pyridine. Some of the products obtained are crystalline and some are amorphous and they are generally obtained in a very good yield and in a pure state. it is expedient first to isolate the diazotized aminobenzene, with a coupling component of the formula R, CONHR The coupling components preferably used are 2,3-hydroxynaphthoic acid arylides of the formula V W in which X, Y and Z have the meanings given above.

The coupling components mentioned may be obtained by condensing a 2,3-hydroxynaphthoic acid chloride with an amine of formula (8) or an arninoacridone.

Coupling is effected by gradual addition of the aqueous alkaline solution of the coupling component to the acidic solution of the diazonium salt. Coupling is advantageously carried out at a pH value of 4 to 6. The pH value is advantageously adjusted by the addition of a buffer. Suitable buffers are, for example, the salts, especially the alkali metal salts, of formic acid, phosphoric acid or especially acetic acid. The alkali solution of the coupling component advantageously contains a wetting agent, a dispersing agent or an emulsifying agent, for example, an aralkyl sulfonate, for example, dodecylbenzene sulfonate or the sodium salt'of l,l'-naphthylmethane sulfonic' acid, polycondensation products of alkylene oxides, for example, the product obtained by reacting ethylene oxide with paratertiaryoctylphenol, and also the alkylesters of sulforicinoleates, for example, N-butylsulforicinoleate. The dispersion of the coupling component may also advantageously contain protective colloids, for example, methylcellulose or small amounts of inert organic solvents which are sparingly soluble or insoluble in water, for example, aromatic hydrocarbons which may be halogenated or nitrated, for example, benzene, toluene, xylene, chlorobenzene, dichlorobenzenes or nitrobenzene, as well as aliphatic halogenated hydrocarbons, for example, carbon tetrachloride or trichloroethylene; also suitable are organic solvents miscible with water, for example, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methanol, ethanol or isopropanol.

.Coupling may also be carried out advantageously by continuously combining an acidic solution of the diazonium salt with an alkaline solution of the coupling component in a mixing nozzle, during which coupling takes place instantaneously. The pigment dispersion formed is' removed continuously from the mixing nozzle and the pigment is isolated by filtration.

The aryldiazoamino compounds to be used in accordance with process (b) of the invention may be obtained by known processes by coupling an aryldiazonium salt with a primary or preferably a secondary amine. A wide variety of amines are suitable for this purpose, for example, aliphatic amines, for example, methylamine, ethylamine, ethanolamine, propylamine. butylamine, hexylamine and especially dimethylamine, diethylamine, diethanolamine, methylethanolamine, dipropylamine or dibutylamine, aminoacetic acid, methylaminoacetic acid, butylaminoacetic acid, aminoethane sulfonic acid, methylaminoethane sulfonic acid, guanylethane sulfonic acid and B-aminoethylsulfuric acid; alicyclic amines, for example, cyclohexylamine, N-methylcyclohexylamine and dicyclohexylamine; aromatic amines, for example, 4- aminobenzoic acid, sulfanilic acid, 4-sulfo-2-aminobenzoic acid, (4-sulfophenyl)-guanidine, 4-N-methyl-aminobenzoic acid, 4-ethylaminobenmic acid, 1-aminonaphthalene-4sulfsnic acid sad,-,lawia as hq aftqi a is 393 heterocyclic amines, for example, piperidine, morpholine, pyrrolidine and dihydroindole; sodium cyanamide or dicyanodiamide are also suitable.

Generally, the diazoamino compounds so obtained are sparingly soluble in cold water and, if necessary, may be separated from the reaction medium in a crystalline form after salting out. ln many cases, the moist press cake may be used as it is in the further reactions. In some cases, it may be advantageous to dehydrate the diazoamino compounds by vacuum drying prior to the reaction.

Coupling of the diazoamino compound with the naphthol is carried out in an organic solvent, for example, chlorobenzene, orthodichlorobenzene, nitrobenzene, pyridine, ethylene glycol, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether or ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, dimethylformamide, formic acid or acetic acid. When using a solvent which is miscible with water, it is not necessary to use the diazoamino compound in an anhydrous form. For example, the water-moist filter cake may be used.

Coupling is advantageously carried out with the application of heat in an acid medium, preferably at a temperature within the range of from to C., and it generally proceeds quickly and is complete. When a neutral solvent is used it is advantageous to add an acid, for example, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, formic acid or acetic acid. By virtue of their insolubility, the pigments obtained may be isolated from the reaction mixture by filtration. Thus, the after-treatment with an organic solvent, to which pigments that have been obtained by coupling in an aqueous medium have to be subjected, is unnecessary in most cases. p

The new products are valuable pigments that may be used for a very wide variety of purposes. For example, they may be used in a state of fine division for the spin-coloration of filament and staple-fiber viscose, cellulose ethers, cellulose esters, polyamides, polyurethanes and polyesters, and also in the production of colored lacquers and lake-formers, solutions or products made from cellulose acetate, nitrocellulose, natural or synthetic resins, for example, polymerization resins or condensation resins, for example, aminoplasts, alkyd resins and phenoplasts, and also polyolefines, for example, polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride, and polyacrylonitrile, rubber, casein, silicones and silicone resins. They may also be used advantageously in the manufacture of colored pencils, cosmetic preparations and laminated sheet material.

German Patent specification Nos. 1,215,837, 1,216,460 and 1,217,008 refer to azo pigments that differ from those of the present invention in that they contain an imidazolone ring instead of the oxazolone ring. These known pigments are in a very hard form when first obtained from the synthesizing process and are very difficult to convert into a finely divided state. They therefore have to be subjected to further processing before they can be used. However, even when suitably processed they still display disadvantageous rheological behavior. The pigments of the present invention, on the other hand, are obtained in the form of very soft and fine crystals and can be used for all coloration processes in which they are to be added to the formulation prior to final shaping without the need for any special aftertreatment. Compared with the pigments described in PB-Bericht 27.858, page 6,351 which contain a 2,3-hydroxynaphthoic acid-fi-anthraquinonylamide residue as coupling component, the pigments of the present invention have markedly better fastness to migration.

The following examples illustrate the invention. Unless otherwise stated, the parts and percentages are by weight, and the temperatures are expressed in degrees centigrade.

27 3-amino-4-chlorobenzoic acid-(2-aerldonylamide) Yellowish brown- EXAMPLE 5 2.95 parts of 3-amino-4-chlorobenzoic acid-(2'-methyl-5'- chloro)-anilide are dissolved in parts by volume of glacial acetic acid with 3 parts by volume of concentrated hydrochloric acid and diazotized with 5 parts by volume of 2N sodium nitrite while cooling. The diazo solution is then run within minutes into a solution of 3.35 parts of 2-(2',3'-hydroxynaphthoylamino)-acridone and 2 parts of anhydrous sodium acetate in 150 parts by volume of dimethylformamide. The mixture is stirred for 3 hours at room temperature, the pig'- ment which forms is isolated, washed thoroughly with water and methanol and then dried. 5.8 parts of pigment are obtained. When converted into a state of fine division, it colors polyvinyl chloride a dull red shade which is fast to migration. The pigment has the formula HgC ll N C ONH- OH (H l C ONE- EXAMPLE 6 A mixture is prepared from 65 parts of stabilized polyvinyl chloride, parts of dioctyl phthalate and 0.2 part of the pigment obtained in accordance with paragraphs 1 to 3 of example l and then worked to and fro for 7 minutes at 140 C. on a two-roller mill. A pure red film possessing very good fastness L to light and migration is obtained.
